In this video, we’re diving into the forgotten art of layering samples, the technique behind some of the most timeless beats in hip-hop history. Learn how legendary producers like Q-Tip (A Tribe Called Quest) and Prince Paul (De La Soul) used this method to craft iconic tracks like ‘Award Tour’ and ‘Eye Know’.
We’ll break down these classic songs, showing you how bass-lines, horns, vocal chops, and drum loops from completely different records came together to create something incredible!
Then, using modern tools and stems from my Soul Food Vol.1 sample pack, I’ll show you how to bring this technique into your own beats.
